High, Low & In Between
We live in turbulent times. Polarisation, war and genocide are not distant abstractions, but pressing realities that shape lives across the world. Fortunately, the consequential global migration fosters connections that bring hope in heavier times.
Curated and presented together with Catching Cultures Orchestra, this program fosters cultural connections and celebrates diversity as a source of creativity and resilience in times marked by conflict and injustice. High, Low & In Between brings people together through music—creating encounters that highlight both difference and common ground.
Birthed through Musicaz, an organisation collaborating extensively with AZC’s, Catching Cultures Orchestra is an Utrecht-based collective of musicians with diverse cultural backgrounds. Many of their members bring musical traditions and life journeys from different parts of the world, adding depth and new perspectives to the ensemble. Catching Cultures Orchestra performs in varying ensembles and regularly collaborates with guest musicians and music-related organisations, continually surprising and moving audiences with their dynamic performances.
Alongside the diverse music program, you can also explore a market. Here, a wonderful group of local creatives, newcomers, and artists will be selling handmade, crafty, and delicious goods. Don’t forget to bring cash!
